DuPont™ Teflon® PTFE 60 X is a polytetrafluoroethylene fine powder resin used primarily for paste extrusion. Teflon® PTFE 60 X offers the excellent combination of properties typical of the Teflon® fluoroplastic resins:
- chemical inertness to nearly all industrial chemicals and solvents
- superior in-use thermal stability (low thermal instability index)
- exceptional dielectric properties, stable with frequency and temperature
- toughness and flexibility
- low coefficient of friction
- non-stick characteristics
- negligible moisture absorption
- excellent weather resistance
- service temperature up to 260 °C (500 °F)
- useful properties at -240 °C (-400 °F)
- moderate stiffness and high ultimate elongation
Teflon® PTFE 60 X is designed for processing at low to medium reduction ratios of 10:1 to 300:1. It is designed to facilitate the production of high-quality, low-density tape and beading.
Teflon® PTFE 60 X meets the requirements of ASTM D 4895-10, Type I, Grade 2, Class A.
